Then I run my system in safe mode, which works fine. I am not aware of any new software/hardware since the last successful start of the system.I also tried restarting the system to normal mode with startup programs turned off, but preventing ALL both SYSTEM and NORMAL startup programs from running did not solve the problem. Thanks a lot for your help!!!

(Note: When you run BSOD_Windows7_Vista_v2.64_jcgriff2_.exe, it will also run autoruns.exe ... and both need to be in the same location!)... with one exception in the following line:

"4. Zip up the entire output folder + PERFMON and attach the zip file to your next post."

The BC forums will allow a total attachment size of only 512 kb (and what you need to attach will exceed this limit). Please upload the zip file to a file sharing website of your choice and and post a link to it in this thread so that we can access your uploaded zip file. I will have a look at the contained information and see if I can shed some light on your BSOD issue.

I did what you told me to and the system BSODed again... but then I did hard drive check in automatic system repair and now it is working even in normal mode. Should I try to restart again also with startup programs?

Sorry for not having been clear.
After I did the clean boot according to the instructions, it BSODed and rebooted and gave me the black screen where one can pick "safe mode" - instead, I picked "automated system recovery" (or something along those, lines) and then "windows memory diagnostic" - it didn't find anything but then it rebooted to normal mode which is running fine now (still without any startup programs I think)

Sorry for having confused you the first time - I did only the memory diagnostic, not any "hard drive check."

I completely removed Daemon Tools Lite, went to msconfig.exe and set "Normal startup" in startup selection, restarted and it seems to be working fine now. I just seem to be unable to remove ESET completely (or at least the keys) - there was no uninstall file and so I had to do it through Control Panel - Programs and Features. It went halfway through uninstall and then it said
"Could not delete key \Software\ESET\ESET Security\CurrentVersion\Plugins\01000103\Profiles\@My profile. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel."
So I selected "ignore" to finish the uninstall.
Should I do anything about those keys that could not be removed? Should I install the newer version of ESET now?
(Note: now I'm running Windows Firewall.)
